Lexus GX470 brake pads wear out prematurely with no ABS light indication despite faulty diagnosis on Lexus GX470

Some Lexus GX470 owners report experiencing premature wear of brake pads, even without an ABS light indication, which can be frustrating. This issue may stem from various factors, including driving habits such as high-speed driving, sudden braking, and carrying excessive weight. Additionally, maintenance mistakes like neglecting to flush brake fluid and brake lines can contribute to this problem. Owners also report that issues with calipers and pistons can lead to uneven wear on brake pads, while a bent caliper bracket may cause uneven pressure on the rotor, exacerbating wear. Furthermore, a sticking brake caliper, often accompanied by rust and corrosion, can result in faster and uneven brake pad deterioration. Given the potential for a faulty diagnosis, it is advisable for owners to consider these factors and seek a second opinion from a qualified mechanic to address these issues promptly and prevent further premature wear.
